Join me on an exciting journey as I explore guitar building with my trusty VOZ Hobby CNC machine! In this video, I'll share my very first attempt at making an electric guitar from scratch. I'll show you how I prepared the wood and used Fusion 360 software to shape the guitar.
Building a guitar with a CNC machine may seem easy, but it actually requires careful planning. I used Fusion 360 to design every part of the guitar for precision. But the CNC machine was just the beginning.
After the machine work, I spent a lot of time shaping the guitar by hand. I fixed its shape, leveled, sanded and polished the frets, and refined the neck-to-body transition. Paying attention to detail was crucial to enhance the guitar's appearance and add those final touches that make it stand out.
The video ends with the assembly and setup process, where the guitar truly comes to life. Building a guitar with a CNC machine takes dedication, patience, and craftsmanship. It took more time than building it the traditional way.
If you're into guitar building or DIY projects, or if you simply want to see a first-time builder's challenges, and successes, this video is for you. Get ready to explore the world of guitar making, where technology and handcrafting skills meet. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more guitar-building adventures!
In the future, I'll continue blending traditional craftsmanship with modern technology. I'll use the CNC machine for templates, fretboards, and inlays, while relying on hand tools for most of the build. I'll strive to bring unique designs, techniques, and ideas. Expect detailed videos covering the entire guitar building process, from shaping to assembly.
Join me as we dive into the art of guitar building, celebrating creativity, skill, and innovation. Subscribe and stay tuned for exciting projects, fresh designs, and building techniques. Together, let's make beautiful music, one handmade guitar at a time!

You're one of the few human beings I trust with making CNC guitar projects interesting and fun :) I think you proved it well with the laser already
Hey! Two of my fav guitar builders intersecting right here! Love both you guys 😊
@tchiks guitars I'm honoured, man! This is very nice to hear. Thanks!
@@captbuscemi thanks man 🤘
As someone who has been building guitars for over 40 years and using CNC professionally for guitarmaking for eight years, I want to commend you on doing a wonderful job. I love the fact that you’ve got great woodworking chops, and don’t rely on CNC as some people do to make up for lack of talent. You and I approach a few things differently and that is only proof that there are more ways than one to skin a cat. All the best to you on your future builds.
I've seen the other video for sound check! Man you're so talented! Insane build!!!
wicked guitar, glad it's a hardtail. that is an awesome scarf joint in the neck. well done.
that's totally awesome!
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you!
Tus videos y tu trabajo, son de otro mundo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
piece of art
amazing
Thanks man!
This is so awesome. Great editing. I'm inspired!
Thank you very much!
I really love this.❤
Bravo..! An excellent build. 🎉
Thanks 🙂
No grain filler. You are my spirit animal.
Yeah 🤘 We should make "No garin filler " stickers😁
@@MagicAtticGuitars Or just swear an oath.
I would be lying. I just finished a fully grain filled black painted tele style. It wouldn't be my choice but the customer wanted a smooth surface. It is actually quite hard to make it nice with a matt black finish.
@@MagicAtticGuitars The one in this video is perfect. The grain makes it look right.
@@timhallas4275 my personal preference too. Ash grain with matt black is one of my favourite.
Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. Superior work. Love your channel. ❤
Thanks Ray! It means a lot to me!
Very cool yet again!!
Thanks man!
So friggin rad. As usual. 🤘
Thanks Tye! 🤘
Masterpiece!!!!
Without a musician it is just a piece of shaped wood and metal 😉
Thanks bro!
Next level!!!
Thanks man!
Awesome!
Thank you!
That is a gorgeous guitar!
Thanks Thomas!
Another outstanding creation 👏
Thanks 😊
Hope your tech investments bring joy to your journey. Another great build.
Mostly joy, sometimes frustrations 😅
Thanks!
Looks amazing!
Thanks man!
awesome work
Thanks
Out of curiosity, which software did you use for CAD and CAM? The build turned out great!
beautiful
Thanks!
Really nice! I will have a guitar sometime T.T whenever the world settles down and i can manage to afford it. But meanwhile content like yours keeps me interested in this wonderful instrument!
Great work 👏🏻
Thanks Vinz!
Beautiful instrument mate, love your style
Thanks Corey! Hope you are well!
Amazing build
Thanks!
Incredible
Thanks Scott! 🤘
Well deserved my friend
I'm fascinated by the possibilities of CNC and would like to own one in future. Beautiful build!
Waiting for the Hand-Powered CNC restoration 😀
It is an amazing tool. Quite stip learning curve though. But it is worth it.
Thanks man!
@@MagicAtticGuitarsabout how expensive is a cnc machine that's able to make guitars like this? I hear machines go from $100s to $100,000s so I have no idea
Mine was around 2000 eur.
@@MagicAtticGuitars Thanks
браво мастеру !!! отличный дизайн, золотые руки )
Thank you very much!
Damn! Nice work 👍
Thanks Martin! 🤘
@@MagicAtticGuitars 🤘
When you make necks with stringers (lines) to centralize the machine, do you make a center line, measuring, marking, or is there a better method of fixing without wasting much time?
Love the guitar, it looks amazing! I'm building my first guitar soon and was just curious about what kind of finish you used on top of the stain?
Woow amazing! Love it. I just build my own first e-guitar with cnc. Very true, u cant just throw in some woodand a guitar comes out. Still lots of work! What wood is this in the neck, and how did you make it so thin without breaking it? Realy love this guitar
Beautiful ....😊
Thanks 😊
@@MagicAtticGuitars your welcome
Can you link the fret slotting bit you used
I like ur inlay bro.nice work . Godbless.
Thanks!
i really like the neck design
Thanks!
sheesh. i would love to have a custom guitar built by you ❤️
Thanks for your message. You can contact me on my website.🤘
There's questions I always had
A set neck with no locking mechanism (carves etc) like the one you made, won't become loose?????
Btw you job was stunning, love your builds ❤
CNC made inlays - great choice to highlight its precision
When you say slanted frets (and pickups), do you mean there is a neck angle at the joint where the neck meets the guitar?
🔥
Thanks 😊
fucking amazing!!
Thanks man!🤘
Nice
Thanks!
Hey brother,
It tool me awhile to comment but I have to say, I have mad respect for you man. You are a monster builder and I absolutely love your guitars! Peace & Love!
Thanks brother! 🤘
I like the guitar building channels that dont feel the need to incessantly talk.
Шедевр! Очень интересно.
Очень кропотливая работа. Вы большой мастер
Thank you Vasily!
11:59 Have you ever tried to use Super Luminova Luminous Paint Set that watchmaker use for their watches? It would rock well used as an insert. Even for the stars on your fret board.
No I haven't tried it. You think it would be better?
@@MagicAtticGuitars I think it would be nice, as it glows. And useful if you play in a dark place, without been "in your face" L.E.D. lights
The powder I used for side markers is also glowing in the dark.
@@MagicAtticGuitars Sorry i did not know.
@@cestusfr I should have pointed that out:)
Awesome video and sweet guitar!!! What I would give to have access to your shop for 1 day! Do you do any projects for other people?
Thanks man. I would love to teach building guitars one day. I don't think I'm there yet with my knowledge and my workshop is way to small.
What do you mean by projects for other people?
@@MagicAtticGuitars That would be a dream job! I'm on build # 2. You're shop is eons ahead of mine! The hardest part foe me is the neck. Just curious if you ever considered doing like a custom neck if someone was willing to pay?
You will get there over time if you stick to it. Sure I can make a custom neck.
Super🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks!
Muito bonita parabéns
Thank you!
I could stare at those neck lines and curves all day. Brilliant as usual!
Yes the neck turned out quite nice. I like it too. Will certainly do it more often.
Thanks man!
Soo perfect! Macht's du Gitarre nur aus Ahorn? Oder anders auch? Ich bin auch baue eine Gitarre aber ganz anders Formfaktor)
Thanks. This one is Ash Wood for body and maple for neck. But you can use a lot of other wood species.
It's a very beautiful guitar,, i want to own someday if god's permit 😅❤❤❤
Hey, great build! There are some things you can improve to avoid potential errors in using the machine, I'm not criticizing, but some of the things you do can lead to you having to throw out parts or whole guitars due to avoidable errors.
The positioning and locating can be greatly helped if you position the blank using known reference points (i.e. cutting a grid on the wasteboard, having locator pins, things like that - also, you should have the center line marked out on the blank and the wasteboard, I did not see that here, but maybe you did).
The way you use your clamps to hold down the blank is not optimal. The way you use them, there is a chance the blank may break free or shift while machining. The clamps should not be angled, but flat with respect to the blank surface, this way you maximize the contact area and avoid introducing shear forces to your hold down. Seems counterintuitive, but having the holding force press down only instead of partially to the side makes the hold down more secure.
Thanks man for all the tips. I think it is valuable not just for me but to all that will read your comment.
I do have a grid on a waste board and sure I'm using a center line an my blank. If necessary I also use pins. You need to have some technique to locate the piece for both sided milling.
I will take your advice to my knowledge.
Thanks for taking the time to explain it all.
It kind of shocked me seeing the Ibanez custom shop doing so much CNC, when you know their usual stuff is handmade in Indonesia or something. I guess we are at the point where the precision of the machine just gives you a better standard.
It sure has its benefits.
Pozdravljeni, lahko vprašam kje kupujete les za kitare? Hvala, Klemen
Oj. Lahko me kontaktiraš na moji spletni strani pa bova kakšno rekla.
Could you tell me what the dimensions of your CNC are? Beautiful work.😎🤘
Thanks man! The work area on my cnc is 400x700mm.
@@MagicAtticGuitars tks man...
Прекрасный инструмент!Отличная работа!Где можно услышать,как звучит эта гитара?

Saya sangat suka gitarnya
Salam dari indonesia
Thanks! Greetings from Slovenia 😊
@@MagicAtticGuitars saya mau dibuatkan pak....
Was there a truss rod I missed or is that optional for some builds?
There was a truss rod:)
11:42
I thought you were going to snort something you shouldn't!
Maybe I should 😆 I had the idea to fake it when I was editing this clip. Would probably get a tone of comments 😅
Lepa kitara :)
Hvala! 🙂
Stunning! \m/, ,\m/ :)
Thanks 😊
Why do u say cnc is slower?
😃😃😃
🤘
Update*: saw the link in the description about ordering a custom guitar...
Yes I'm taking orders. 🤘
Anytime you do something that is completely different from how you normally do it, it is going to take longer.
Sure. But I'm not so new with cnc operating.
The problem comes when you design, plan, model and build each guitar from scratch.
That guitar is sexxxxxxyyyyy
It's beautiful, but the relentless perfection of CNC makes me kind of sad
Thanks. There are always some finish touches done by hand that leave the mark of handcraft.
the tools matter not to the master craftsman
If he knows how to use them😅 It took a lot of time to figure out the basics of cnc. But it is an amazing tool. Opens up the whole world of possibilities.
Thanks man!
Man, do you have a telegram account? Or its a scammer?
It's a scamer.
You are really telling me you have wasted 20 minutes of my life watching this video, just to have me find out you not even showing how it f... sounds?
We all owe @austinshaner big time 😉
True! I'm super grateful for his effort.
@@MagicAtticGuitars yeah, tell me about it. If it weren't for him, I would have ruined 4x the wood needed before I successfully started CNCing. And I'm 39, too old to do it by hand any longer 😅
Right 😅 Do you have an IG profile where I can see your work?
